Vegan Broccoli Cheddar Soup (wfpb)

Vegan broccoli cheddar soup - a thick, rich soup that is long filling. Despite the preparation without cheese, this delicious, creamy soup is super cheesy and amazes everyone. This broccoli potato soup is based on cashews, potatoes and spices such as nutritional yeast and miso paste, which gives the cheese a good taste. You can use this broccoli cheese soup recipe easy-peasy to make a nacho cheese.

Ingredients

1 broccoli
1 small sweet onion chopped
3 cloves garlic minced
2 200 g yukon gold potatoes, peeled and cubed
2 large 8.5 oz or 240g carrots, peeled and chopped
¾ cup 115g raw cashews (or 400 ml coconut milk )
1 ½ cups 360ml water ( no water when you use coconut milk)
4 cups 1l vegetable broth
½ cup 20g nutritional yeast
1 tablespoon lemon juice fresh
1-2 tablespoon mellow white miso paste
1 teaspoon onion powder
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon mustard Dijon
¾ teaspoon paprika powder
½ teaspoon dill dried

Instructions

First let the cashews soak in hot water for about 10 minutes.
Now sauté the diced onion and garlic in a sufficiently large saucepan. I always add a sip of water. Now add the peeled and diced potatoes and carrots with the vegetable broth to the onions and cook until they are soft.
Use a hand blender or high-performance blender to mix the potatoes and carrots until they are creamy.
Then drain the cashew nuts and mix creamy with 1 ½ cups water, nutritional yeast, miso paste, lemon juice, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, mustard in a high speed blender.
Add the cream to the potatoes and taste again properly.
Now add the broccoli florets and let them cook until they are soft but still dente. It takes about 10-15 minutes.
If the soup is too thick, add a little more vegetable broth. If it is too runny, let it boil a little more. Or add 1-2 tablespoon of tapioca starch. Make sure that there are no lumps.
